Sobre IBD

Meet two expats: Harry Maddox, a lawyer for an American drug company, and Sam Roth, an old friend who is currently on the lam on pirating charges (hijacked three containers of drugs from a Shanghai pharmaceutical company that had been mysteriously closed by the Chinese government). Harry has gone to Shanghai to finalize a deal for the drugs and to see Echo, a Chinese informant, with the hope of continuing their affair. Harry tells Sam the truth. The drugs are a new possible cure for AIDS. These containers are going to be shipped to Harry’s wife, Mira, a doctor, and their son, Ian. They are setting up AIDS clinics in the ghettos of South Africa.Both men suddenly realize that the Chinese government and drug dealers have promised some very major kingpins, very bad dealers, a multi-million-dollar score. Everyone is hunting them down. Neither showdown is going to end with a handshake or a safe exit. Echo may be the key and last shot, literally and figuratively, at getting these containers shipped.

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
